Map room stuck at the middle of the airfield runway (WTF?!)

Is there a way I can move the map room out of the runway?

Select group rotate and move map room from center to grass location then exit editor hit save when you do, when you re-enter map room will still show as being in the center but when you build it will be where you placed it.

One other detail select objects tab click on map room uncheck the can colide box and scroll up to name it as map room.

The standard airfields in the game contain a Map Room.  Pay no attention to where they are shown in the Terrain Editor.  When the TE builds the map, it will all be in the right place.

Eh?  I think you're thinking about the Town Skuzzy.  On H2H maps it's normal not to include a Town so the Map Room must be added manually.
Easy in-game again.

:D Well since you ask, I've never had to rotate a field to place the map room but you're right about it not showing where you move it and jumping back to the center of the tile instead.  I like to put them near the Tower myself.

Actually you rotate the map room not the field, you select on the map room  then select group rotate, I understand what Skuzzy meant but I don't use cities on my maps, thanks Easy and Skuzzy <>
